Traveling Through the Tokyo Bubble Era

Chapter 709 Goodbye,

"I heard that Mr. Oki is holding a year-end party at the store tonight.

The year-end party is a year-end dinner party held by Japanese companies.

You eat a bowl of noodles here first, I'll help you watch.

My colleague said that Mr. Oki went out to meet someone. Don't worry, I will call you the first time he comes back.

......"

On the street at the side door of the Night Tokyo Restaurant, a short-haired woman kept speaking to comfort people.

In front of her was a man with an anxious look on his face.

Listening carefully, the two people were not speaking Japanese, but Chinese.

At the same time, Mato Oki was at the main entrance of the restaurant and greeted Hideki Hanyu who was holding Nakorolu.

The "domineering president" holding the cat walked at a very fast pace and finally entered the banquet hall where the Wannian Club was held.

The employees of Damu Logistics bowed one after another, and some of them couldn't help but look at the little female cat in the president's arms out of curiosity.

Hanyu Hideki noticed the gaze, but didn't care at all.

Even if those who can come to Ginza to attend the year-end party tonight are middle and senior management of Oki Logistics, they are still far away from him.

On ordinary days, it is difficult for Oomu Mado to see him, let alone these people.

As for Nakolulu, the little female cat always stayed in the arms of the scumbag and didn't even look at these people.

But at this time, Kitahara Eri, who arrived earlier, came to greet them.

She smiled and touched Nakolulu in Hanyu Hideki's arms, and then teased Hanyu Hideki, "Hanyu-san actually took the trouble to bring your little baby out, it's really rare."

Hanyu Hideki replied casually, "He stuck to me as soon as he returned to Tokyo, so I just brought him out for some fun."

Nakolu recognized the familiar Kitahara Eri and looked up and meowed.

Kitahara Eri was touched by Nakorolu's cuteness. She immediately took the little cat from Hanyu Hideki and held it in her arms and caressed it gently.

Then he said to Hanyu Hideki, "Let me take care of it for you."

Hanyu Hideki warned, "Don't give her food."

"Remember, don't worry, everyone knows that you feed Nako Lulu better food than you do yourself, so I won't feed her anything random."

Kitahara Eri said this and sat down next to her holding Nakorolu.

As for Hideki Hanyu, she didn't have much to say except to say hello.

After all, the year-end party is for relaxing at the end of the year.

The serious work has already been communicated on weekdays.

After Kitahara Eri left, Kamibo Eiichi, who had been waiting nearby, came over.

The guy said with a smile on his face, "Boss, good evening, I didn't expect you to come tonight."

Facing his confidant, Hanyu Hideki walked up to him, put his arm around Kamiho Eiichiro's shoulder, patted him, and joked in an intimate manner.

"I just got back to Tokyo, and I heard that President Ohki was treating us to a meal, so I came over."

Kamiya Eiichi could naturally tell that Hanyu Hideki was joking, and Hanyu Hideki's intimate attitude also made him feel very comfortable and warm, so he immediately said.

"I'm going to hold a party in Karuizawa someday. How about the boss come to join us? There will not only be delicious food, but also beautiful women. I just met a group that speculates on airline stocks recently. They are all beautiful stewardesses. Their legs..."

Seeing that this guy was going off topic, Hanyu Hideki immediately interrupted, "I know, I know, just tell me the date, don't talk nonsense."

Jinbao Yingyi quickly agreed, "No problem, President."

The two scumbags smiled at each other, and everything was said without words.

Seeing that this guy was alone, Hanyu Hideki asked casually, "You came alone tonight without a female companion. Where is Miss Sato? She is not playing anymore."

"Hey……"

When hearing Hanyu Hideki mention Sato Kyoko, Kambo Eiichi sighed.

Obviously, although Kamiya Eiichi said that he didn't care about the high-level green tea, he didn't think so in his heart.

Seeing this, Hanyu Hideki didn't intend to say anything.

Feelings are very personal and changeable. As an outsider, it is best not to get involved rashly, even for him.

Just like he doesn't like others interfering in his private life.

After sighing, Kamiya Eiichi quickly adjusted his expression and said.

"Let's not talk about her. Although I didn't bring a female companion today, I did bring someone else. Let me introduce her to the boss."

Kamiya Eiichi said this and waved towards someone not far away.

Then Hanyu Hideki saw a tall man walking over and greeting Kamiho Eiichi very politely.

Kamiya Eiichi immediately said to the man.

"Qiang-san, say hello to Mr. Hanyu."

The man called Aqiang hurriedly greeted Hanyu Hideki respectfully.

Aqiang, who is studying abroad in Japan and majoring in finance, naturally knows who Hideki Hanyu is.

Well-known writer, super-rich man, romantic talent...

Each and every title was well-known even when he was in school.

What's more, after completing his graduate studies, he was recruited by his senior classmate Kamiho Eiichi to join an investment company, and the boss behind the company was the Hanyu Hideki in front of him.

In other words, Hideki Hanyu is also his boss.

Kamiya Eiichi then gave a brief introduction.

“Boss, Qiang Sang is studying for a master’s degree at my university, and he has the same advisor as me, so he is my junior.

He is a very talented person and his mentor often praises him, saying that he is better than me, so I let him come to the company to study, and then officially recruit him into the team after he graduates.

Oh, by the way, Qiang Sang is actually an international student from China."

Hanyu Hideki never asked too many questions about trivial matters such as Kamibo Eiichi's recruitment, so he didn't care too much about this strong man.

However, when Kamibo Eiichi finally said that the man was a Chinese student, Hanyu Hideki immediately smiled, stretched out his hand and spoke to the man in Chinese.

“My company welcomes all talented people.”

Perhaps because of his soul as a time traveler, Hanyu Hideki couldn't help but feel close to and fond of the Chinese people, even though he knew that these were two different time and space.

The man didn't expect that Hanyu Hideki spoke Chinese so well and treated him so kindly.

So I was a little flattered and shook Hanyu Hideki's hand, and said with a hint of excitement in my tone, "Thank you Mr. Hanyu for your appreciation."

"Very well, have fun tonight, I won't talk any more."

After saying this, Hideki Hanyu said goodbye and left.

Despite the sense of closeness brought by the previous life, he would not overdo it.

With the polite greetings over, the year-end party officially began.

Although Hideki Hanyu is the largest shareholder of Ohnoko Logistics, he does not actually hold any position in the company.

Mato Oki is the president and Eri Kitahara is the chairperson of the board of directors.

These two are the protagonists of this year-end party.

Feeling that he was here to eat for free, Hanyu Hideki found a table near the entrance of the banquet hall and sat down after bringing Nakolu back.

While teasing the little female cat to taste the delicious food, he quietly watched the year-end party being held.

Although he was there and did not participate, he also liked to watch the noise in the world.

Halfway through the year-end party, Kitahara Eri, the president of Ohki Logistics, came on stage at the urging of her employees and sang a folk song from Hokkaido.

Hanyu Hideki was listening attentively when he suddenly heard a few sudden voices coming from the entrance of the banquet hall not far away from him.

He turned his head casually and saw a short-haired woman in a restaurant waitress uniform, who was talking to a restaurant waiter guarding the door of the banquet hall with an anxious look on her face. A man in his early thirties was talking to a restaurant waiter guarding the door of the banquet hall with a hint of pleading in his face.

"Morisaki-san, please let us in."

"No, Jin-san, you are also an employee of the restaurant and you know the rules of the restaurant. Mr. Oki, who has booked the banquet hall, is an important guest of the restaurant. If I let you in, I will definitely be punished by the manager."

"He really knows Mr. Oki and has helped Mr. Oki before. As long as Morisaki-san lets us in, Mr. Oki will definitely not blame you."

"Kin-san, you're off work now, so please don't come and cause trouble. If you really want to see Mr. Oki, you can wait until this year-end party is over."

"Morisaki-san, he is really worried. He has a business problem and hundreds of people are waiting for him to bring back good news."

The short-haired woman kept begging, but her colleagues refused to let her go.

The man next to him became more and more anxious, and seemed to want to plead as well, but after trying several times, the Neon language he spoke was a mess.

Finally, he had no choice but to say to the short-haired woman next to him in Chinese, "If it doesn't work, I'll just wait a little longer. Anyway, the person has been found."

When the short-haired woman heard this, she knew the man’s situation was urgent and wanted to continue pleading.

But she didn't expect that before she opened her mouth, she heard a voice coming from the banquet hall.

"Let them in."

The short-haired woman, the man, and the waiter guarding the door heard the words, looked in the direction of the voice, and saw the person who was speaking.

A very young man, wearing a suit, and looking so handsome that it seemed unreal.

The most important thing is that this young man is a little strange.

There was only one young man sitting at the table.

And on the young man's legs, there was a beautiful kitten with clean fur and wearing a little skirt.

For some reason, they felt that although the young man was in a banquet hall where a year-end party was being held, his style seemed out of place with the surroundings.

The next moment, the waiter suddenly recognized who the young man was.

His expression changed immediately, and he bowed 90 degrees in panic and said, "I'm very sorry to disturb Mr. Hanyu's meal."

After all, working in a high-end restaurant in Ginza, you will always be exposed to more information than ordinary people.

Besides, given Hideki Hanyu's appearance and his popularity in Japan, it's not surprising that the waiter recognized Hideki Hanyu.

Hanyu Hideki naturally had no intention of blaming the waiter.

He decided to invite the man and the short-haired woman in after hearing them communicating in Chinese.

He didn't expect that he would meet so many Chinese people today after casually agreeing to attend the year-end party of Ohnogi Logistics with Eri Kitahara.

"Okay, I don't blame you, let them in."

Hanyu Hideki explained and said nothing more. He turned around and continued to listen to Kitahara Eri's out-of-tune singing.

Over the years, Kitahara Eri has gradually grown into a strong woman, and this appearance is not common.

It’s a pity that I didn’t bring a portable camera, otherwise I would have definitely recorded it and shown it to Kitahara Eri’s boyfriend, Oshima Nagamasa.

While Hanyu Hideki was having fun, the Chinese couple at the door were let in and walked to Hanyu Hideki's table together.

"Thank you Mr. Hanyu for your help."

The short-haired woman thanked him in Neon language. Having worked in Neon for many years, she recognized who the person in front of her was.

Hideki Hanyu is a well-known figure in Japan.

Hanyu Hideki turned his head and smiled slightly. His bright and handsome appearance immediately dazzled the short-haired woman.

But then, Hanyu Hideki's voice rang out, "You are Chinese, right? I just heard you speak in Chinese."

Hearing that Hanyu Hideki spoke Chinese so well, the short-haired woman was a little surprised, but she nodded and said, "Yes, we are both from the Chinese Magic City."

The man next to him also knew that Hanyu Hideki could speak Chinese, so he politely thanked him, "Thank you for helping us, sir."

Hanyu Hideki waved his hand nonchalantly, "It's just a small favor, please sit down first. The year-end party is not over yet, and Oki Mado has no time to see you."

After hearing what Hanyu Hideki said, the man was anxious, but when he looked at Oki Mato who was interacting with his subordinates in the banquet hall, he realized that it was not appropriate to disturb Oki Mato now.

So he pulled the short-haired woman, thanked Hanyu Hideki politely, and then found two seats at Hanyu Hideki's table and sat down.

Seeing that the two were a little reserved, Hanyu Hideki smiled and pointed at the dishes in front of them and said, "Feel free to eat. You're welcome. I can't finish it by myself. It would be a waste."

"Thank you sir."

The two thanked him again, but gradually let go of their restraint and enjoyed the dishes in front of them together.

As the short-haired woman ate, she said with interest, "I've been working in Night Tokyo for so long, but this is the first time I've eaten the food here."

The man asked, “Why don’t you eat?”

The short-haired woman said unhappily, "Of course it's because it's expensive. I came to Tokyo to make money, not to spend money."

The man said, "Once the business problem is resolved, I will treat you to a meal at the best restaurant when you return to the Magic City."

"Then I'll remember it." said the short-haired woman.

"I won't forget it," the man promised.

At this time, the year-end party has entered its final stage.

In the lively banquet hall, people toasted each other, passed glasses back and forth, and had a great time.

But in the midst of the hustle and bustle, Hideki Hanyu's table was an exception.

There were only three people sitting at a table.

Hideki Hanyu holding a cat.

A short-haired woman wearing a restaurant waitress uniform.

There was also a man with a slightly anxious look on his face.

The three of them interacted very little, and no one else in the banquet hall came to see them.

The whole table has a unique style and seems to be in a different dimension from the surrounding environment.

Seeing this, the short-haired woman asked Hanyu Hideki curiously, "Mr. Hanyu, why don't they come to toast you?"

"Maybe I don't dare." Hanyu Hideki answered casually.

Hideki Hanyu's answer was neither perfunctory nor a joke.

The fact that he was sitting here alone made his intention clear.

Watch the fun, but don't want to join in.

In this situation, how could these subordinates of Da Mu Logistics dare to disturb him?

The only ones who dared to talk to him under such circumstances were Kitahara Eri, Kampo Eiichi, and Oki Mado.

However, not long after the banquet started, Kamiho Eiichi left early with his junior brother because of some minor problems in the futures team.

Kitahara Eri and Kamibo Eiichi, as the protagonists of the banquet, were busy dealing with their subordinates at the moment, and Hanyu Hideki had also instructed them in advance that they didn't need to take care of him deliberately.

So this strange picture is formed.

As soon as Hanyu Hideki said this, the man next to him became curious and asked, "Don't dare?"

When the short-haired woman heard this, she realized that the man didn't know Hanyu Hideki, so she immediately leaned over to his ear and whispered in his ear.

After a moment, the man turned and looked at Hanyu Hideki with uncontrollable surprise.

He never imagined that the handsome young man who had kindly invited them into the banquet hall was such an important figure.

Although he is six years younger than him, he is already a super-rich man with a net worth of over 10 billion US dollars.

Compared with Hideki Hanyu, his current business is really just a small one.

Perhaps it would be an exaggeration to describe it as a minor fight.

However, the man quickly adjusted his mood and stopped comparing himself with Hideki Hanyu.

After all, let alone him, even in the whole of China, there is no one more powerful than Hanyu Hideki.

Even if we look around the world, there are very few people who are better than Hideki Hanyu.

Comparing yourself with this kind of monster is just adding to your troubles.

As if he noticed the man's gaze, Hanyu Hideki turned his head and smiled slightly, and asked casually when he had nothing to do.

"I just heard you guys say at the door that you and Oki Mado know each other."

The short-haired woman quickly pointed at the man next to her and said, "It's not me who knows him, it's him."

The man explained, "I met Mr. Oki at the beginning of the year. He went to Shanghai to develop business and encountered a hepatitis outbreak. He happened to be staying in the same hospital as me. I saw that he was a foreigner, so I gave him some medicine.

Although he was transferred to another hospital not long after he was admitted, we got to know each other because of this.”

Hearing the man's answer, Hanyu Hideki nodded thoughtfully, as if remembering something and said, "So it was that time."

"Mr. Hanyu knows?" the man asked curiously.

"Of course I know. I used my connections to arrange for his transfer to another hospital."

After Hanyu Hideki finished speaking, he casually asked, "Then why did you come to Tokyo to see him this time?"

The man did not hide the reason for his visit to Tokyo, which was probably to purchase machinery from Japan, but his friend had good intentions but committed a crime that was taboo in the industry, which resulted in the purchase negotiations falling through, so he came to Japan to seek help from Oki Mato. Mr. Hanyu could not help but sneer after hearing this.

The man didn't understand what was going on and thought Hanyu Hideki was making fun of his friend, so he quickly explained, "My friend didn't mean it, she just wanted to help."

Hanyu Hideki shook his head and said, "I'm not laughing at your friend. I'm laughing at the taboos in the industry that you mentioned."

As he spoke, Hanyu Hideki laughed disdainfully again, "Haha, a bunch of useless insects, huddling together for warmth, maliciously manipulating and raising prices, and calling it the industry's rules.

With what these idiots have done, it won't be long before they are all doomed."

According to his memories of his previous life, the equipment purchased by the man in front of him at this moment was sold at a very low price in the future by China using its strong industrial manufacturing capabilities.

Now, the Japanese manufacturers who have united together to come up with so-called industry rules and deliberately raised prices have been ruthlessly crushed one by one and eventually eliminated in disgrace.

There is no way. Just like Japan itself, Japanese businessmen are so weird, and it is the same no matter which industry they are in.

Just want to keep it all for myself, not consider sharing.

The man next to him was full of surprise. He never expected Hanyu Hideki to say that.

Hanyu Hideki glanced at Oki Madou who was still socializing, then turned to the man and said, "Since you are so anxious, there is no need to wait for Oki Madou."

After saying that, Hanyu Hideki snapped his fingers towards the door.

Then he rushed out to the bodyguard and made a phone call gesture.

The bodyguard immediately brought over a mobile phone.

Hanyu Hideki thought about it, dialed a number, and spoke a few words in Neon language that the man could not understand.

After hanging up the phone, he asked the restaurant waiter for a piece of paper, wrote a phone number and handed it to the man.

"Contact this person tomorrow morning and he will solve your problem."

The man took the paper blankly. The short-haired woman next to him knew that Hanyu Hideki had helped him, so she hurriedly urged the man, "Why don't you thank Mr. Hanyu?"

The man who reacted quickly said, "Thank you, Mr. Hanyu."

"Meeting is fate, it's just a small favor, you're welcome."

As he said this, Hideki Hanyu stood up holding Nakolu.

"My cat is a little tired, I'll take it home to rest first. You don't have to leave in a hurry. Since you are here, even if you don't need to help, you can still chat with an old friend.

Farewell. "

Nodding politely, Hanyu Hideki walked out of the restaurant holding Nakolu as the short-haired woman and the man said goodbye.

When he walked to the door and waited for the restaurant waiter to bring the car, he happened to see through the restaurant window that Oki Mado had finally discovered the man and was chatting with him with a look of surprise on his face.

At this time, the Ferrari F40 stopped in front of him.

Turning around, he took the key and carried the kitten into the car.

A strange thought came to my mind. The man I met unexpectedly might also be the protagonist in someone's story.

But he quickly shook his head and thought, what does that have to do with him? It was just a chance encounter.

Step on the accelerator and the Ferrari roars out.

……

On the first day back in Neon, he attended Oki Mado's celebration party, which was considered the most relaxing day for him since returning to Neon.

The next day came, and there were receptions for related companies, private meetings, and year-end parties for companies such as Yunshang Entertainment and Elf Entertainment.

On the 28th, 29th, 30th, and 31st, even on the last morning of 1988, Hideki Hanyu still found time to meet a friend in parliament.

After lunch, he received a call from Kuroki Hitomi.

"Hubby, Xiwu and I are ready."

"I have arranged for someone to pick you up, meet at the airport."

This year, he will return to Sendai City to celebrate the New Year.

He was going to bring Kuroki Hitomi and his second daughter, Hanyu Yuma, with him.

Because the old man and Hanyu Sonoko said that they wanted to be with their granddaughter during the New Year's Eve.

The eldest daughter was still in China at the time, so it was too late for her to rush over.

The most important thing is that because of the cultural barriers, Liu Xiaoli and Hanyu Hideki's parents could never get close to each other.

Hanyu Hideki doesn't want to force things like this, so he never forces it.

In the VIP lounge of Haneda International Airport, Hideki Hanyu, who was still drunk, saw Hitomi Kuroki who was holding Yuma Hanyu.

The woman saw Hanyu Hideki's look and said with some pity, "Why do you have to attend social events on New Year's Eve?"

Hanyu Hideki pinched his daughter's face and said, "This year is more important, and next year is even more important. We have to be careful and cautious, so we have to attend the social events."

After saying that, he bent down and kissed Kuroki Hitomi again, "But today is over. You can have a good rest in Sendai for a few days."

"Just a few days of rest?" asked Kuroki Hitomi.

"It's good to be able to rest for a few days. Let's go, it's time to board the plane."

After Hanyu Hideki finished speaking, he took Kuroki Hitomi and her daughter towards the boarding gate.

He wanted to rest more, but the problem was that Emperor Showa would die in seven days. By then, as the boss of a giant Japanese media company, he would have to deal with some things and pretend to be busy.

As his status becomes higher and higher, he will naturally become unable to control himself.

However, thinking about the year-end financial reports submitted by the Cloud Department and the Elf Department during the previous meetings, his mood instantly improved a lot.

As for Yunshang Entertainment, as its overseas expansion gradually came to an end, under the command of Hideki Hanyu, it began to cash out some of its fixed assets, and its revenue also began to look good.

Not to mention Elf Entertainment, which has already dominated the world game market. With its increasing market share and the continuous recovery of the global game market, its revenue has nearly tripled.

However, although the profit was huge, Hideki Hanyu still did not withdraw the money as before.

He continued to store cash flow, taking advantage of the neon economic bubble to make a final fortune, while also waiting quietly, like a predator waiting for an opportunity.

The 'Spirit' takes off.

Not long after, Hideki Hanyu and Hitomi Kuroki returned to Sendai City.

After returning to the Hanyu family residence, Kuroki Hitomi and Hanyu Yumai were warmly welcomed by their younger brothers and sisters who had returned home early, as well as the old man and Hanyu Sonoko.

But before Hanyu Hideki could say a few words, someone called him.

It is Shigemasa Nakano, the president of Tohoku Energy.

"President, I heard you were in Sendai City."

"Yeah, President Nakano, what's up?"

"I'm receiving some important guests. Would you like to come over, President? They are..."

Nakano Shigemasa mentioned several people's names.

As soon as Hanyu Hideki heard it, he knew that he might have to socialize again in Sendai.

These people are all important stakeholders of Northeast Energy in the Northeast region. Some of them are local tyrants in the Northeast, as well as important figures from some political families.

It would have been fine if he hadn't come back, but now that he has, he certainly can't pretend not to know.

So after hanging up the phone, he said goodbye to his family.

Kuroki Hitomi asked again with concern, "Do you need me to accompany you?"

Hanyu Hideki glanced at Hanyu Xiwu who was held in Hanyu Yuanzi's arms and said, "Xiwu is not familiar with her family. You stay at home to take care of the children. You don't have to accompany me."

"Ok."

Kuroki Hitomi was also worried about the child, so she ended up staying at home.

Half an hour later, he arrived at a high-end restaurant in Izumi District, Sendai City.

There is no need to say much about what happened after the meeting with Nakano Shigemasa. It was nothing more than socializing with a group of partners with apparent enthusiasm.

Although everyone knows that the only thing that maintains the relationship between them is interests.

But this does not affect the fact that everyone seems to be as close as close friends at this moment.

After all, in many cases, so-called friendship is not as reliable as a relationship of mutual benefit.

When the social event came to an end, Hanyu Hideki and Nakano Shigemasa said goodbye to everyone warmly and sent them off one by one.

In the end, only Hanyu Hideki and Nakano Shigemasa were left at the entrance of the restaurant.

After being escorted by the hostess of the restaurant, Hanyu Hideki said to Nakano Shigemasa, "Take a ride with me."

"Yes, President."

After Nakano Shigemasa agreed, he got into Hanyu Hideki's Bentley.

After the vehicle started, Hanyu Hideki first asked the driver to send Nakano Shigemasa back.

Then he asked, "You just told me, what's the problem with Huaxia's investment?"

Nakano Shigemasa replied, "There was no problem with the investment. After the factory was built, business was very good. We could make money by doing anything. There is a huge market over there that has not yet been developed."

"Isn't this great? Then what's the problem?" Hanyu Hideki looked puzzled.

Nakano Shigemasa said helplessly, "The problem is that China's foreign exchange reserves are limited, and our investment can only become numbers in the bank account over there."

Hideki Hanyu understood what Shigemasa Nakano meant.

China today is in its infancy, with all industries waiting to be developed. Not to mention the small foreign exchange reserves, it is not yet the industrial monster that it will be in the future. It is not easy to exchange the profits of foreign companies, even if they want to exchange them for other industrial products.

However, Hanyu Hideki is not worried at all about what Nakano Shigemasa is worried about.

Because at this moment, no one has more confidence in that land than he does.

So he said in a normal tone, "Then we'll continue to invest, continue to expand production, and do everything we can. Since you said there's a huge market that has yet to be developed, of course we'll continue to bet on it."

"what?"

Shigemasa Nakano never expected that Hideki Hanyu would give such an answer.

His original intention was to consider reducing Northeast Energy’s investment in China.

After all, the global energy market is showing signs of recovery, and Northeast Energy is making various investments around the world. Although they have a lot of money, the money must be spent wisely.

Even though there is a blue ocean in China, there is no hope in the short term.

However, in the face of Nakano Shigemasa's doubts, Hanyu Hideki not only did not change his words, but said again.

"If the funds from China are not enough, we will allocate more funds from the headquarters and temporarily reserve a budget of 100 million US dollars. You don't have to worry about Mitsui. I will communicate with them personally."

Nakano Shigemasa was completely dumbfounded, "More investment?"

Hanyu Hideki said with certainty, "Of course, I should go to China again in February. Please help me prepare the inspection team in advance."

Seeing that Hanyu Hideki had no intention of changing his plan, Nakano Shigemasa could only agree, "I understand. I will do as the president arranges."

As if he could see Nakano Shigemasa's worry, Hanyu Hideki smiled slightly and patted Nakano Shigemasa on the shoulder.

"Don't worry, President Nakano. You've seen my judgment go wrong before. Believe me, you'll be glad for your decision today in the future."

Upon hearing this, Shigemasa Nakano suddenly remembered that the young chairman in front of him had never made any mistakes in the arrangements for the development of the company since taking over Tohoku Energy.

Moreover, Hideki Hanyu has achieved his current wealth at such a young age. In terms of ability and vision, it is indeed not something that an ordinary person like him can question.

Thinking of this, Nakano Shigemasa hurriedly explained, "I don't doubt the president. I just think that the energy market is recovering now, and we should invest more funds and energy in this area."

Hanyu Hideki nodded and said, "You are right."

Today, the global energy market is indeed showing signs of recovery, just as Shigemasa Nakano said.

But the problem is that America’s new president has been chosen, and he’s still the World War II pilot.

Therefore, the Gulf War in history was probably inevitable.

Although the global energy market suffered setbacks again during this period, it was also the last opportunity for development investment.

Once the war is over, energy supply will enter a long period of stability.

Even if there are minor twists and turns, they will not completely affect the overall situation.

It will be too difficult to enter the market by then.

"However, our development in the global energy market will not affect our plans in China. If there are any funding problems, we can continue to issue additional shares while the stock market is still doing well."

After Hanyu Hideki finished speaking, Nakano Shigemasa thought for a moment and expressed his opinion.

"I understand. I will follow the president's instructions."

"I'm just suggesting that you are the one who actually controls Tohoku Energy, so President Nakano please don't let me down."

Hanyu Hideki said this with a smile, but it made Nakano Shigemasa nervous.

Hanyu Hideki seemed not to notice and said, "Remember to make the financial statements look better next year."

He did not mean to imply that Nakano Shigemasa had cooked the books.

Since Northeast Energy's global expansion this year, its scale has expanded rapidly, and with the help of the recovery of the energy market, its revenue has been quite good.

I believe that when next year's financial report is released, the Northeast Energy stocks he holds will definitely rise sharply.

At this point, the two of them had basically finished talking about their main business.

After sending Nakano Shigemasa home, Hanyu Hideki returned to the Hanyu family residence.

At this time, it was completely dark outside.

When he arrived at the yard where Lao Guban and Hanyu Sonoko lived, the family was sitting happily in front of the TV, watching the Red and White Songs Festival which had already begun.

Due to the serious impact of the locust disease, the public opinion has been saying that this year's Red and White Song Contest might be cancelled.

But in the end no formal order was issued.

In addition to the Red and White Songs Contest, the New Year's Concert reported by Cloud Satellite TV has not been cancelled and will be broadcast as usual tomorrow night.

After Hideki Hanyu appeared, Hitomi Kuroki came up and pulled her lover to sit down.

Smelling the cigarettes and alcohol on Hanyu Hideki, she asked with concern, "Social engagements must be very tiring."

"It's okay, I'm used to it."

Hanyu Hideki said as he looked around and asked, "Where's Yuu Mai?"

Kuroki Hitomi replied, "She is asleep in the Bamboo Garden, and there is a maid guarding her."

Hanyu Hideki nodded to show that he understood, then looked at the TV screen again. The idol group "Children of the Sun" from the Yunshang group appeared on the stage.

This year's Red and White Songs Festival was held as usual. Although Akina Nakamori retired and no longer participated, the Yunshang Group still managed to win five groups of performing guests.

It’s just that although the performers at this time are artists from his own company, it can even be said that he created them personally.

But it is also said that the gentleman is not interested in the songs of Son of the Sun.

After listening to a few words, he said boredly, "Just you guys watch, I'm going to take a shower."

Hanyu Sonoko knew that her eldest son was tired from socializing, so she looked at the time and said, "Go take a rest, but don't forget to set off the New Year's fireworks together."

Hanyu Hideki waved his hand and said, "Don't worry, I won't forget it."

After saying that, he walked towards the bamboo garden.

After going to the bedroom to check on his second daughter who was sleeping soundly on the bed, he went into the bathroom with some clothes to change into.

The infinity bath, which is like a small swimming pool, allows Hideki Hanyu to lie comfortably in it, enjoying the relaxation of hot water while admiring the scenery of the backyard.

However, not long after he lay down, the bathroom door was pushed open.

Hitomi Kuroki, wearing only a gauze bath towel, walked in barefoot. After stepping into the pool, she snuggled up to Hideki Hanyu.

This scene reminded Hanyu Hideki of the first time he and Kuroki Hitomi were in a hot spring hotel in Takarazuka.

However, things are different now, so he naturally won't mention what happened back then.

He just hugged Kuroki Hitomi silently. It was rare that he did nothing and said nothing. The two of them just stayed there quietly.

After a long time.

Hanyu Hideki, who had changed his clothes, and Kuroki Hitomi, who was holding the awakened Hanyu Yuma, walked together to the yard of the Hanyu family house.

Hidetoshi Hanyu and Yui Hanyu have already put out the fireworks they prepared in advance.

After seeing his brother and Kuroki Hitomi, he immediately shouted, "Time is almost up, I want to light the fireworks."

Yui Hanyu, who was looking at the watch nearby, couldn't wait to urge, "We're already there, hurry up."

Seeing his younger brother light the fuse, Hanyu Hideki reached out and covered Hanyu Yumai's ears. The little baby's big bright eyes looked around curiously.

boom!
Fireworks flew into the night sky, exploding into a sky full of brilliant colors.

Hideki Hanyu looked at everything in front of him, feeling both familiar and unfamiliar.

He smiled and whispered softly.

"Goodbye, nineteen eighty-eight.

Hello, nineteen eighty-nine"
